In the realm of truth, the belief system has no place.



In the realm of truth, the belief system has no place. The birth, life and death itself is mere illusion on the ultimate standpoint. Therefore, the reincarnation, resurrection and rebirth theories are mere intellectual speculation. For one who is aware of the fact that, the self is not physical but formless Spirit, for him the question of being Christen, Jew, Hindu or Muslim does not arise.

The man who is aware of the truth, for him, the intellectuality is mere speculation or imagination on the base of physical self within the illusion.

Until one remains stagnant with his accumulate knowledge as truth, he will not be able to verify anything other then his accepted truth, because he is in the clutches of his physical based or egocentric truth or knowledge.

Self-knowledge or Atma Gnana or Brahma Gnana cannot be attained by one who is without strength or earnestness or without the receptiveness and courage to accept the truth and reject the untruth. If a serious seeker strives sincerely by means of inquiry, analysis and soul-centric reasoning, he will be able to realize it.
It is seekers  sincerity and earnestness in his  spiritual pursuit, the knowledge starts revealing on its own.  Anyone who has humility and patience and is sincere and ready to drop their accumulated dross and receptive to accept the truth will enter non-dual Self-Awareness when the conviction becomes firm.


Deeper self-search reveals the fact that, It is the Self that is in illusion and it is the self that gets free from the bondage of the illusion. The illusion is present in the form of mind. Mind is in the form of universe. Universe appears as waking or dream and disappears as deep sleep.  The individual experiences of birth, life, death and the world are within the waking experience.  The dream is parallel waking experience and waking is parallel dream.

Deeper self-search reveals the fact that,  theself is neither the waking entity nor the self is the dream entity but the self is formless soul, which witnesses the coming and going of the three states in succession without the physical apparatus.  This has to be mentally grasped and assimilated to realize the formless soul, the innermost   self is nothing to do with the three states. On the standpoint of the three states, the three states are mere illusion.

The practical life within the practical world, which is present as waking experience, is mere illusion. If waking experience is mere illusion than the individual experience of birth, life, death and world are mere illusion.   If the experience birth, life death and the world are mere illusion, it means the form; time and space are mere illusion.  If form, time and space are mere illusion, it means the past, present and future is mere illusion. Thus it is necessary for the seeker to realize the fact that,   form, time and space are one in essence, in order to realize the three states are one in essence. That essence is consciousness. Thus all the diversity is created out of   formless consciousness. Thus no second thing exist other than consciousness, the innermost self. Seeker of truth has to constantly reflect on the subject in order to get firm conviction of the truth.  Seeker has to reflect on the same truth again and again until it becomes reality. One needs to constant reflect on the subject until he gets firm conviction of what is what.





There is need to know what is truth, to negate the untruth.



Without deep analysis and study one will remain in the physical plain, believing whatever, he has seen, known, believed and experienced as person of the world, as reality. Only after deeper self-search  one becomes aware of the fact that, self is not physical but it is the formless soul or consciousness . On the base of the formless soul or consciousness, the innermost self, the physical existence(universe or waking)  is mere mirage. Therefore, agreeing and disagreeing on physical point of view is mere intellectuality. Without analyzing what is adulterated, how  one can  realize the un-adulterated actuality one will not know 'what is what' without deeper self-search. 

There is need to know what is truth, to negate the untruth. Without knowing the what is truth, it is impossible to know what is untruth. There is no scope of arguing on the standpoint of the physical self in pursuit of truth, because it leads nowhere. But one has to go deeper self-search and study on his own ,which helps him to realize the truth and mentally reject the untruth once and for all.


The reason used on the physical based is called intellect. The intellect is used in practical life within the practical world. Intellect cannot grasp the the ultimate reality or Brahman, because it is based on physicality. The  soul-centric Reason  can grasp it. The soul-centric intelligence can grasp the  fact that,  waking experience  itself is a mental state similar to the dream state.


Only Few, know the distinction between reason and intellect. Soul-centric Reason is so troublesome to use! That is why they misinterpret and misunderstand non-duality.


Soul-centric Reason will lead one towards non-duality. The physical based reason which says “This is right ; this is not right.” And it evaluates thoughts as they come and go. The soul -centric  reason says: “this is truth” and “this is untruth”, which evaluates the dual[waking or dream] and non-dual[deep-sleep] experiences. The soul-centric  reason  is the permanent faculty of the existence, whereas intellect is the lower faculty , which builds up the logical chains. soul-centric Reason based  can judge what is truth and what is untruth, whereas the intellect can judge only on the standpoint of physical self or ego.

The life has meaning only in physical existence.



It is difficult to discuss the ultimate truth within the scope of some teaching. The barricade has to be removed to grasp the ultimate truth or Brahman. It is necessary to understand “What truth is” and also “What is untruth” in order realize the ultimate truth or Brahman. So also understanding the illusion is necessary. The reason for this is, that the ways to realize the ultimate truth is very intricate or deep.


The duality creates separateness in the physical existence. The life has meaning only in physical existence. The whole life depends on action. Action in duality comprises action and inaction, because inaction is also action. Until and unless one analysis the various aspects three states the ultimate truth or Brahman is impossible to grasp. But on in depth analysis it may be found to be the witness of the three states is formless and apart. Thus, the ultimate truth or Brahman  is very intricate to grasp and it demands deep analysis and study.

Whoever partakes in pursuit of truth sincerely acquires non-dual wisdom. For a person who indulges in religion, god and guru glorification and scriptural studies, intellectuality and yoga, the question of acquiring the non-dual wisdom is impossibility.

The person who does not indulge in pursuit of truth will not be Self-Realized. Elimination of ignorance through Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana  is nobler then any other physical based knowledge. All ignorance gets extinguished in non-dual wisdom. The mind has physical limitation. Wisdom acquired on the base of soul or consciousness, the innermost  self is limitless. Through non-dual wisdom all the untruth gets merged in to the ultimate truth or Brahman  which is the formless  soul or consciousness.

One has to indulge in deeper -self-search  and try to assimilate what is truth. Seeker has to put question to those who are expounding the Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana  with humility without arguing on the standpoint of accumulated knowledge. The one who has achieved the ultimate knowledge will be able to guide to the end.

Once one attains Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana than he will not fall prey to any kind of doubts and confusion (as what is truth and what is untruth). One will find the three states are being apart from the formless soul, the innermost self, and the three states and the formless witness of the three states  are one in essence. Therefore, even the three states are also consciousness(soul) , because, it is created out of formless  soul or  consciousness, the innermost self

Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana  is meant to liberate man from doubts and confusion as what is truth, and what is untruth. Attainment of Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana  make one realize the three states are mere illusion and ultimately the illusion merges with the  formless soul or consciousness, which is the innermost self. thus the formless soul or  consciousness is ultimate truth or Brahman.

The dream is witnessed as a whole, without the physical apparatus .Similarly, the waking also is witnessed without the physical apparatus



When one becomes aware of the fact that, the ‘Self’ is not form, but formless, then he also becomes aware that, thinking and the words which are based on the form becomes meaningless. On the base of the formless self, the whole physical existence in which consists man and his experience of the world becomes mere mirage.


The dream is witnessed as a whole, without the physical apparatus .Similarly, the waking also is witnessed without the physical apparatus. Therefore, it is necessary to trace the formless witness  of the three states in order to grasp the ultimate truth or Brahman. The waking entity is not the self; therefore, quest of truth becomes very difficult path because we base ourselves on the waking entity . Therefore,  mentally rectifying the reasoning base from form(ego) to formless(soul) is necessary before indulging in pursuit of truth.

Until one reaches the perfect understanding, the thinking and words are useful to assimilate the ultimate truth or Brahman. When all doubts and confusion which are holding one to believe, the physical existence as reality gets cleared, then one realizes the fact that, the thinking and the thoughts and experiences and the words are part of the mirage. Until one remains unaware of the fact that,  the self is formless, he is bound to believe whatever he has seen, known, believed and experienced as a person, as reality. Until he believes his –self as a person he is bound to believe the birth, life and death (duality or mind) or pleasure and pain (duality or mind)as reality.


They alone in this world are endowed with the highest wisdom who are firm in their conviction of the sameness and birthlessness of the Self(soul or consciousness). The people who are not sharp and receptive does not understand their way


Everyone is smart enough to understand assimilate the Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana but  because of the inherited and inborn  conditioning or samskara  , one is in the grip of duality, which he thinks, it as reality. deeper self-search  will lead the seeking mind towards perfect understanding and assimilation and realization of ultimate truth or Brahman.

All  the virtues and generosity are necessary in practical life within the practical world.  But they are not the means to acquire Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana . One has to do mental effort to assimilate the effortless existence. One has to spend time to understand the time less existence. One has to understand and realize the fact that, the ultimate truth or Brahman  is beyond form, time and space .  till one  do not understands that fact  that he is in the grip of duality and he will continue accumulating the secondhand knowledge  without verifying their validity.

Until one has the yardstick to know what truth is, and what is untruth, whatever he  reads and try to assimilate will not yield any fruits. Therefore, it is necessary to realize the fact that, the true self is not the form(ego)  but formless(soul). On the standpoint of the formless self(soul) , the whole physical existence(universe or waking)  is mere mirage. 

The man and his experience of the world exist even in the dream. The dream becomes unreal, when waking takes place. The waking in which you and me are discussing the truth becomes unreal, when the non-dual wisdom dawns. Thus, it is necessary to understand the fact that, the waking is parallel dream and dream is parallel waking experience. The one which is aware of the coming and going of the three states is formless and apart. This truth has to be grasped to realize the ultimate truth or Brahman.

The only way to understand assimilate and realize the ultimate truth or Brahman truth is to focus the attention on the formless substance and witness of the mind or universe.

Philosophical argument leads nowhere


The intricate maze of philosophy of different schools claims to clarify matters and reveal the Truth, but in fact they create more confusion where no confusion need exist. To understand anything there is a need for perfect understanding and assimilation of the truth. Why worry about physical body, ego, logic creation, creator, saints and sages, and the world, which are part and parcel of the illusion.


All the thoughts and words are experiences are part of the illusion. The truth is hidden with in the illusion as its formless substance and it is apart from the illusion as its formless witness. It is apart because it is not an entity or identity with in the illusion. The formless substance and witness are one in their essence therefore there is no seconding exists other then the essence. And that essence is consciousness.


All conceptual divisions invented by teachers of philosophy by their excessive analysis. Where do all these concepts end? Why should confusion be created and then explained away? Fortunate is the man who does not lose himself in the labyrinths of philosophy, but goes straight to the Source from which the mind rises and subsides.


Assuming or speculating and coming to logical conclusion on the base of physical self or ego, is intellectuality. Therefore, intellectuality is egocentric. Egocentricity is greatest obstacle in grasping the non-dual truth. One has to travel from physical existence or universe or illusion towards non-dual reality or spiritual existence.


There is no need to study philosophies of Berkeley, Kant, Hume, and other western and eastern philosophers; they are not the means to acquire Self-Knowledge or non-dual wisdom. They are in fact an obstacle in pursuit of truth, because they are based on the physical self or ego. There is no necessary to study philosophy of any great thinkers to ensure firm realization.


There is no need of any philosophy to verify the truth of the self. All that is intellectual wealth, useful in explain doubts and difficulties if others rise them if he himself encounter them in course of thinking. But to attain realization, all that is not necessary. One wants fresh water to drink, but he does not require all the water of the whole lake to quench his quest.


Pursuit of truth deals with the whole of experience. Science may give the scientific answers, religion the religious answers, but in pursuit of truth the seeker absorbs all views and he rejects them, if they are based on the false self and illusion.


Science deals only with immediate causes, not the ultimate cause. Such process is on the physical plane, good for practical  life.


Philosophical Authoritarianism merely assumes as true what another says, but what has yet to be proved. Lots of pundit will teach “Who am ‘I’”? but none have deeply analyzed it scientifically, none can prove it. Rational proof is needed in pursuit of truth, so that one can arrive at knowing truth i.e. Wisdom; theirs is mere dogma, parrotism, repetition of what they think and speculate is truth.


Philosophical argument leads nowhere. If one philosopher says “Self” is formless “another will reply, "No, self has a form! If one says "his adopted philosophy has higher value then all other philosophy” another will say, "No, that is lower and there are many philosophies higher then that." It is impossible to get anywhere with such talk because both sides are merely assuming and imagining.


Pursuit of truth does not begin with ultimate truth just by holding some philosophical declaration as truth, truth has to be proved, not assumed. People who take philosophies for granted are mere scholars who have mastered philosophy without verifying the validity and parroting their philosophical knowledge not the truth. People think philosophical mastery is wisdom but it is mere play of words. The philosophical knowledge is not the means to non-dual wisdom.


Seeker has to mentally grasp the true “Self “or “consciousness” which is beyond the reach of the experiences, words and thought, and it is the formless substance and witness of all the three states.


The means to the attainment of Self- Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana  are: discrimination between things permanent (real/ non-dual/self ) and impermanent (unreal/duality/mind), and the urge for spiritual freedom.
